Falmouth School Of Sailing, Falmouth | Fees, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I recently completed the exam preparation for the RYA Yachtmaster certificate with Falmouth School of Sailing and I have to say it was worth every minute of my travels to get here from Germany including an 10 hour busride through rainy England. Falmouth has presented itself from its best side and I would choose this time of year again. Mild temperatures, blooming wildlife- and winds that make you learn quickly! The yacht was in amazing condition, equipped with heating and with plenty of good food for provisioning. Very well taken care of.
The knowledge of our instructor Mike was beyond expectation and here I want to say special thanks again, he really pushed me and my co-student to sucess! Mike’s personal investment and care, assessing us where he could and sharing his skills with us made us confident in difficult docking and strong wind situations. I lacked some theory in the beginning of the week and last time sailing has been a while, but with some sweat, good teamwork and long evenings- I passed the exam! FSOS was able to provide study material, all weather gear (foulies) and the berth for the yacht in a nice marina. The school also provided an replacement examiner right away after our examiner unfortunately got sick.
The customer service/ guest relations and admin responses are very cooperative.
definitely five stars!
Thank you and hopefully see you again!

Jay is the most fantastic trainer and sailor. He is completely unflappable, incredibly calm even when the weather isn’t and an excellent teacher. The boat was very well maintained.the admin of booking the course and follow up through Falmouth School of Sailing has been very through. Both my husband and I learnt a lot and we look forward now with much more confidence to our sailing holiday in Greece. Thanks again team. Liz

From start to finish these guys are amazing, the booking process was a breeze and when we did the day skipper practical course it was amazing! Jay is such a good instructor, he has an endless supply of knowledge that he is happy to share!

We had the best week and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!!! 10/10

I recently completed my Day Skipper theory and practical with Falmouth School of Sailing, and what a great experience it was!

My theory course in the classroom with Ian, was like a crash course in all things nautical. His teaching style was super relaxed, which gave me the confidence to ask for help when necessary, and his anecdotes helped me to remember all the important.

As for the Day Skippers practical course with Keith, not only did we put all of our navigational learnings into practice we had a hell of a good laugh, doing it! Keith’s wit and humor added a whole new dimension to our sailing adventure.

Both courses were not just informative but also incredibly enjoyable. Ian and Keith’s passion for life and sailing was contagious, and their expertise made even the trickiest stuff feel like a walk in the park.

So, if you’re considering any courses with Falmouth School of Sailing, I couldn’t recommend them highly enough! An absolutely fantastic experience!

I recently achieved my Day Skipper through Falmouth School of Sailing and the course was first class.

The vessel was well maintained and very comfortable.

Our instructor Michelle was superb, I learnt so much from her over a week period and her method of teaching was excellent.

I have attended other sailing schools in the past and Falmouth School of sailing is by far the best experience I have had.

If anyone is looking to build on their knowledge of sailing then I highly recommend their services.

I have already had the opportunity to meet the owner Rob, who took the time to advise me on how to proceed with my journey to becoming a yatch master.

I will certainly be going back to continue on my learning journey and was equally impressed that all the courses are taught either on the water or on site at their own facilities. Not many sailing schools offer fire training.

In short, excellent training and first class instruction.

Thanks guys, it was a great experience.
